@Umbreon20 exposure of genitals? then that is the hentai tag already

this website defines erotica as sex scenes without genitals shown

It's ecchi, I don't think it's explicit enough.

@Buny0058 ecchi has nudity but no sex scenes, erotica has nudity and sex scenes but no genitals shown while hentai is full sex with genitals shown (but they censor it in japan though)

I see. Well ecchi is alot more of a wide spread term. Does mal even have the erotica tag?

Yes, it does. Shows like Interspecies Reviewers have that tag.

On that note, I can view Interspecies Reviewers and other shows with the Erotica genre tag from the web but not from the app. I can’t seem to find a setting related to it. Any ideas about how to remove whatever adult filtering seems to be in place?

I dunno.
Except for few instances, this show mainly uses sex scenes as a comical device rather than... just show a sex scene for the sake of it. Which I think is the case for the erotica tag.
I know it's a bit stretched, and it breaks the strict definition of the tags you gave, but I think the "vibes" of the show are pretty important in its classification. And the vibes of PSG are leading more towards the exaggerated and humorous ecchi than the... just erotic erotica.

@_nezra_ hentai tagged anime are not shown in the mobile apps too afaik so ye its the app stores rules like the other user said

also im fine if they remove the erotica tag already and just expand the ecchi tagged shows

It could be related to appstore and google playstore.

No, because the sex scenes aren't shown directly.

thing is, sex scenes don't show anything specific + they're used for comedy and parody reasons, and that fits more with ecchi tag rather than erotica.

More valid question: Should we give a fk and is it worth discussing?
